THE 25TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE
FULBRIGHT ACT
Mr. FULBRIGHT. Mr. President, on
August 1, 1946—25 years ago—President
Truman signed Public Law 79-584, an
amendment to the Surplus Property Act
of 1944. That marked the official begin
ning of our educational and cultural exchange
program administered by the
Department of State.
On this 25th anniversary of the
exchange program, I would like to pay
tribute to all those who have administered
it with such devotion and efficiency. We
have been fortunate to have a number of
dedicated persons involved in directing
the program.
In the 25 years the program has been
enlarged and extended, primarily
through the Smith-Mundt Act in 1948;
the Mutual Educational and Cultural
Exchange Act of 1961 (Public Law 87-256),
known as the Fulbright-Hays Act; and
the International Education Act of 1966.
Altogether some 140,000 persons have
participated in exchanges under this
legislation. If the short-term "International
Visitors" category is excluded, the
cumulative total would be about 100, 000—
roughly 35,000 Americans and 65,000
foreigners. These exchanges have
immeasurably benefited not only the
individuals who have participated directly,
but thousands of others who have come
into contact with exchange participants—
for example, the students who
have been taught by grantees.
More than 130 countries have been
involved in exchange activities, although
the major emphasis has been placed
upon those 50 nations with which the
United States has binational educational
foundation agreements. Eighteen of these
countries—most of them in Europe—
have entered into cost-sharing arrangements
with the United States and
currently contribute directly about $1.7
million annually to the exchange program.
Private and indirect contributions
cannot be measured.
I remain convinced that educational
and cultural exchange offers one of the
best means available for improving
international understanding. Certainly in
relation to the cost nothing can compare
with it. The total amount expended on
the program by the United States over
25 years—including the appropriations
for fiscal 1972—is about $740 million, or
the equivalent of about 1 percent of this
year's military budget.
I am encouraged by the increase in
the fiscal 1972 appropriation for the
program. The amount just approved, $40.5
million, is up from $37 million in 1971
and only $31 million in 1969—of the
$40.5 million no less than $4.5 million
must be from U.S.-owned foreign
currencies. The highest appropriation was
$53 million in 1966. increased public
awareness of the value of this program,
stimulated by former grantees and by
our own foreign observers, helped
reverse the downward trend in appropriations
and I appreciate the role that
members of the Senate Appropriations
Committee and other Senators have played
in this process. Tribute should also be
paid to Assistant Secretary of State
John Richardson, who has worked
vigorously for the program and has
administered the program with efficiency
and good judgment.
Regrettably, rising costs have
diminished the impact of this increase. The
projected number of exchanges for
1972—almost 7,000 including foreign
nationals in American-sponsored schools—
